Harly's "ROCK STAR" Birthday Party!

Harly turned 10 years old on Monday April 19, 2010
She had her party on Saturday and had lots of friends over.
Harly wanted a "Rock Star" birthday party so we called up Aunt Rachelle to save the day... and she did.

Thanks to Aunt Amy who is very artistic, made Harly's beautiful cake.

Getting ready for the big party!

Thank You Uncle Aaron and Aunt Rachelle for making the trip up north to see us. You are the winner on the Merrill side for being the first to visit.
Your prize awaits you!


Give A Day....

... get a Disney day!
Our family finally completed our service project.
Our service was to help out at the Living Hope Women's Center in Show Low.
We were supposed to put together baby outfits for new moms, instead the boys built a sidewalk out of brick and the girls stuffed envelopes for their flyers.
There was another family from St. Johns who also helped.
We had a good time and can't wait to go to DISNEYLAND!

Here is Dayson, Clayton and Carson along with the other guys getting ready to lay the brick.

The boys finished product.
Pretty Good!

This was the funniest thing I have ever seen and couldn't stop laughing.
My sister Kelly has "face warp" on her phone and changed my kid's faces for me.
She also did mine, but NO ONE is seeing that!

Spring Time!

BOY SCOUT CANOE TROOP
During spring break the Boy Scouts went on a canoe trip down the Colorado River in Lake Havasu. Dayson also took Carson along for the ride. They had a really good time. Clayton was partners with Sully Udall and Dayson and Carson were partners.

This is Clayton and Sully paddling away.

Adam was amazed at all of his eggs.


TRACK MEETS

It's that time of year again for track meets in the wind.

Clayton did really good at his events.
He placed 1st in the High Jump at the Dome today.
This picture was taken earlier this week in St. John's were he placed 4th.

Here is Clayton rounding the corner in the relay race.
His team got second place.

(It's hard to see but he's in black & gold behind the line of runners.)

Clayton and his friends waiting for the results on some of the events.



We have been enjoying our new home and I can't wait to get some pictures taken for everyone to see. I just need a little more time to get things put where I want them.
